1709 - 1717 Broadway (at West 54th Street)

This strip of low-rise buildings dating from around 1915 was
fated to go the way of its neighbor to the west at
900 Eighth Avenue, although it was given a brief
respite due to the financial crisis and was still un-redeveloped
when I left the city in 2010. By the time I got back,
the market had obviously picked up again.
